The Annual Four-Twenty Gathering - 20th April 2017

[spidergawd]

I'd like to propose a T&T at c/s 137 for the 19th at 11am if that suits Chopper Mike. Its a nice place and they have a verdamper, and it's close to central station and my hotel.

Seconded Spider ! , Thats perfect, gives me time to grab a bike from STARBIKES and head over. I like 137 and often stop and have a joint and a coffee outside of it - it's at a nice little junction with plenty of passing stuff to watch and laugh at !!!

That's cool then, just did a walk through on Google Street from hotel to 137. Passed Relax along the way so I'll have to have a look in that one at some point.

Wow this should be good ,remember when you make T and T you take crowd size into account . Will need bigger shops or shops with room outside . There still a bunch to post ,going to need more badges
There nothing like swarming a CS with twenty or more pot heads. So if your thinking about it ,take the plunge.


Roll on 420

[OneHighMofo]

It's looking to be a great 420 so far!

I'm 100% happy to bring a cup again if we want to do a vote for best CS (that looks like, and probably is Utopia )
Who knows? Maybe someone else could clinch a title?) My vote would certainly go to Voyagers this year on strength of product (at relatively reasonable prices) alone.

Deffo think the suggestion of arranging T&T's at or near the larger shops so that we can accommodate everyone is a good one.
Perhaps we can get some suggestions going here for venues with big enough capacity to hold a 20+ strong group?

Off the top of my head the obvious candidates are the perennial:
- 420 Cafe,
- Utopia (obvs, it's not big - but they definitely like us being there),
- The Batavia Dab Dungeon and Voyagers combo FTW
and
- 137 - this venue worked a treat for 2016's take-over,
- Funky Monkey already suggested - somewhere I've never been so deffo keen to try that

How about....
Betty too - this was good last year too we had a nice sesh in there
Dampkring 2 - decent sized venue
Dare I say it Prix D'ami (I've never even been in) might also fit the bill? *edit* wtf am I saying? No! *slap*

I did wonder about places like Goa and Het Gelderse - they're very central and always empty! and I've never been in either. They might be glad of the custom

Anywhere else?

*edit* Baba's new location - while out of the way a bit is easily big enough to hold everyone, has lots of comfy seating and Verdampers

[macky]

Catch33
Spirit
Siberie

[OneHighMofo]

Catch33
Spirit

Never been in either! Siberie definitely a good choice

[tinky]

Het Ballonnetje?

[OneHighMofo]

Het Ballonnetje?

Lovely place - perhaps not quite central enough for a major meeting spot? I always enjoy a trip to Ballonetje though. I'm sure one will be in order over the course of the week. I have quite an itinerary of shops to get around

Never been so I'll take an early morning cycle out that way to see what's it like.

I would think the large table at the back of Katsu would accommodate a good few of us as well as Media ?

[Lemming]

I like all of those suggestions.

Regarding 137, Relax and Catch 33 mentioned above, gives me an excuse to mention this map.

Prix d'Ami was, of course, a favourite of the late Cattales. We have been there to smoke one for her in the past.

Het Ballonnetje - now you're talking! One of the first coffeeshops I ever visited in the 1980s and still a favourite. I wonder whether the terrarium is still there? (I haven't been there for a while).

Actually I was considering a major expedition out to the east. Maybe starting at Ballonnetje and then heading way out. Happy People is cool but I also know that Eastwood is now in a new building and it would be interesting to find the likes of Nogal Wiedes and The Stud.

DeLekkersteNUGS16 - are you reading this and planning on joining us? Can I put you on the list?

Like this idea Lemming, be nice to see an area of the city that I've never visited before.

Maybe after Mike biker and spider,s T and T on the 19th at 11 am at 137 we head to central take tram crawl out that way?

[spidergawd]

BaBa has a Google map walk in too, looks nice with 2 verdampers on the table.
I remember an afternoon t&t a couple of years ago, a load of people there, choppermike, ohms, FOD, ftcarer & sons and a few others that I thought was at 137, but not so sure since I've seen the images of 137. Anyone remember? It was winter time and in that area, and I'm sure it also had a verdamper. I'm in love with the things. Total pure high with the good herb.

Can confirm it definitely has a verdamper.
